“We hired East River for a work event last week and they were brilliant! Every single person loved them and would highly recommend! They created a great atmosphere and covered a variety of different music. The whole process of booking was really easy and the whole band were so lovely! Couldn’t recommend enough and can’t wait to hire them again for future events!”

“We work in music and East River were our choice for our wedding day band - and we weren't disappointed! In fact, we were delighted! All the way from the afternoon acoustic set to the evening party, they were note-perfect and made lots of the songs sound even better than their originals! Hope to have them play at another event in the future!”
Sera & Fran, Wedding, Leeds, October 2019

We loved every song and it was great seeing everyone really let their hair down and have a good time. We'd definitely recommend East River, they were fantastic all night!”
